I love how some figures people say will never stand on thier own, like the old Masterpiece Seekers, and I have them on a high up shelf standing proud for years.


Can't believe NECA stampedmthat stuff on the top... Just moronic.
Some specific figures just can't stand independently, not necessarily every release of the same figure maybe, but some have loose hips/ankles. Some figures are just designed top-heavy with small feet because that's the character design. Some figures can't be posed to stand and endure without some level of support, that's just how they are. I have several toys from NECA that can stand alright for like a day but eventually tip because they have small feet Like the Elizabeth from Bioshock Infinite who has very small feet with little surface area touching the shelf, I can't even use a base because of how shallow her peg holes are so I have to use another figure to balance her and a base to keep that figure supporting the both of them.

Compared to DC Collectibles' bases the stamps on these NECA bases are miniscule and entirely unnoticeable, though I am pretty sure most toy companies throw their logo on any non series specific base. Not that I even have a problem with seeing a logo at the feet of a toy, using a NECA base on a DCC or anything else doesn't ruin the display of the toy, and vice versa.
